Abstract

We have previously reported high ROSC rates and excellent survival in OHCA in our region [ 1 , 2 ]. Prehospital emergency physicians (anesthesiologists) take active part in most resuscitation. If ROSC is not achieved, resuscitation is terminated on the scene in most cases. We want to investigate factors linked to survival in the few patients transported with ongoing resuscitation to the hospital.
